Demand letter service

Someone owes you money or work and the polite reminders have stopped landing. A demand letter is the firm-but-softer step before a legal notice: it puts your request in writing, on the record — and often that alone is what settles it. We write yours from your facts for ₹299, or write it and post it to them by Registered Post A.D. for ₹799. No lawyer appointment, no retainer. Preview it free, and escalate to a formal legal notice only if it is ignored.

Your ₹299 kit includes:

  • ✓ Firm, professional demand letter from your facts
  • ✓ Clear ask and a fair response deadline
  • ✓ How to send: email, WhatsApp, or Registered Post
  • ✓ Evidence-pack checklist for what was agreed
  • ✓ Proof-of-delivery checklist
  • ✓ If-ignored: escalate to a formal legal notice

A formal legal notice in your own name — the recognised first step, and the one that resolves most disputes before they ever reach a lawyer or a court. Sent by Registered Post A.D. with proof of delivery.

Agreements.co.in is a document service, not a law firm — we don't give legal advice or guarantee outcomes. You send the notice in your own name and confirm every detail before you pay.

What this costs, and what you get for it

How sending a legal notice actually works

The law this document is drafted against — sources last read 25 August 2026

We last opened the official published source for each provision below on 25 August 2026 and confirmed the text we cite is still there. That is a check of the source, not advice about your situation.

  • A civil claim must generally be brought within 3 years of the right to sue accruingLimitation Act, 1963 — Schedule, Article 113 (residuary: three years from when the right to sue accrues); a specific Article governs instead where one fits, e.g. Articles 14/15 (price of goods), 18/19 (money lent, work done), Article 55 (compensation for breach of contract)Read the source — opened 25 August 2026

“But we never signed anything.”

A written contract is not what makes money owed to you. Bank transfers, UPI history, invoices, delivery proof, a bounced cheque, and WhatsApp or email where they accept the amount are all evidence, and a notice can be built on them. Most people who tell us they have “nothing in writing” turn out to have a payment trail. The form asks you for exactly what you do have.

You (the Sender)
The person or business owed money or performance.

Where the letter will be delivered — a deliverable postal address.

Evidence & Supporting Documents

Add anything that shows what was agreed and what went wrong — the invoice, an email or WhatsApp chat where they agreed, delivery proof, bank statements. Optional, but a demand backed by proof is much harder to ignore.

Your evidence: Nothing added yet

0 of 5

You have not added any evidence yet. You can still send the letter — but the items below are what a lawyer asks for first, and gathering them now is far easier than later.

What to gather

  • The record of what was agreed — the contract, order, quotation or bookingMost importantIt is what makes this a demand rather than a request. Everything you are asking for has to trace back to something they actually agreed to.Nothing signed? The WhatsApp or email thread where the deal was made does the same job — add it under Communications.
  • What fixes the amount — the invoice, bill, receipt, or the payment you madeMost importantA figure you cannot evidence is the easiest thing in the world to ignore. This is what turns your number into a number they have to answer.No formal invoice? A dated message stating the amount, or the bank line showing what you paid them, does the same job. If you are asking them to do something rather than to pay, add whatever records what it was worth.
  • Proof you did your own part — delivery, handover, or the payment you madeThe standard answer to any demand is that you did not deliver either. Showing your side was done closes that door before it opens.An acceptance email, a delivery note, a courier record, or the files you handed over all count here.

This is a checklist of what a lawyer usually asks for first — not a judgement about your case, and never a reason you cannot send the letter. We go by how you describe each item; nobody opens your files to check them, so tick things off honestly — the list is only useful if it is true. You can add more evidence at any time, and only you and our team can see what you upload.
